The U.S. has influenced European regulatory processes to remove "destination clauses," allowing gas to flow freely between EU member states. This strategy aims to reduce Russia's market share while promoting gas from Israel and Cyprus. Critics argue this "Energy Union" will lead to increased control over domestic energy consumption and potential for corruption.
